THE CRIPPLED BILLIONAIRE IS MINE TO KILL
Tardrain Brooklyn was the golden son of the Brooklyn empire—until a suspicious accident left him crippled and rottened in a darkened room. Now a prisoner of his own bitterness, he trusts no one and hates the world.
Enter Ivana: the woman forced to become his wife.
To the Brooklyn family, she was a hired executioner, tasked with finishing what the accident started. To Ivana, this marriage is a cage built by blackmail and desperation. Their orders were clear: infiltrate his room, earn his trust, and serve him a slow, silent death.
But Tardrain isn’t as helpless as he seemed and Ivana isn't as cold as she needed to be.
As she broke his rules and invaded his solitude, she discovered the man behind the monster. And as Tardrain watched his new bride, he couldn't help but wonder if she was his most dangerous enemy—or his only hope for survival.
In a house filled with secrets and lies, the ultimate betrayal was falling in love with your victim. Ivana has a choice: fulfill her deadly contract, or risk everything to save a man who has already been marked for death.

Chapter: Chapter 6: The WillIt was already six in the morning when Mrs. Gladdis woke up to resume her usual routine; always going to check up on Tardrain. Not because she cared, but because she relished seeing his spirit break under her taunting gaze.However, today was different, she made her way up the stairs to Tardrain’s room. She tried to turn the doorknob, but it wouldn't budge; it was locked from the inside. Which meant one thing. Ivana wasn't in the room.She let out a loud hiss of disappointment, she’d come to check if Ivana had spent the night in Tardrain’s room.Without hesitation, she strode down the corridor to Lilico’s room and pushed the door open without knocking. Inside, she found Lilico applying a facial mask, her fingers smoothing the creamy paste over her skin. Lilico turned around immediately, dropping the remaining mask on the table. She shifted her full attention to her mother, wondering what had brought her this early. “Good morning, Mom,” she greeted, standing up from her chair to s

Chapter: Episode 5: MarriedTardrain expertly navigated his wheelchair toward his bedside. There was his alarming gadget, lying on his bedside drawer, used for calling his servants during emergencies. He angrily punched the red button. His fingers curled on his wheelchair armrest, the leather cracking under his grip, a fiery rage coursed through his veins, threatening to consume him. “Who the hell was that maid? Her audacity. Her guts. Who the hell employed her?” he groaned through gritted teeth. His chest rose and fell, his anger mounting at himself. He felt humiliated; he felt downgraded. Everything about Ivana’s gaze was something he had never seen or experienced before. Her eyes, the way she stared at him as if he wasn’t the most feared in the city, as if he was just a ‘cripple’ to be pitied. “Fuck!” Tardrain stamped his clenched fist repeatedly on the wheelchair armrest. The impact rattled up his useless legs; at least he could feel something other than this choking fury. But at the same time, he f

Chapter: Episode 4: Hurtful Mockery“Out!” Tardrain screamed, stamping his palm on his wheelchair armrest, his chest rose and fell in rage. Ivana stood frozen in place, her legs refusing to move. The shocking discovery sent her mind reeling, struggling to grasp the truth. No one had told her he was Disabled. ‘Did they intentionally hide it from me? Was Davis involved in this deception?’ Ivana thought and mentally shook her head in doubt—‘Davis had never kept anything from me.’ But then, who would have thought karma was real? The mighty Tardrain Brooklyn, the sweetheart of New York and ruthless billionaire, crippled? Who would have thought he’d been hiding in the mansion while the public believed he was out of the country handling his own company, as his stepmother had claimed? ‘So it was all a lie, just to deceive the public. He’d had an accident that left him crippled and with dissociative amnesia?’ Ivana thought, her jaws slightly dropped, ‘Wow. Just wow. Now the game will be so interesting.’“Why the stare?” Ta

Chapter: Chapter 3: Shocking DiscoveryThe ride to the Brooklyn mansion was smooth, but the silence suffocated them in the car. No one dared to start a conversation, as every one of them was buried in their thoughts. Ivana’s fingers drummed nervously on her thigh as she awaited the moment the car would stop. Davis noticed her trembling hand and quickly placed his over hers to calm her down. He had insisted on joining them to make sure she was fine with everything. Not like he cared, though. He just doesn’t want Ivana to change her mind along the way.“If you act like this in front of Tardrain, I bet you won’t survive a day,” Lilico muttered, staring at them through the driver’s rearview mirror. “Come on, stop painting him to be a villain . You’re scaring her. Besides, he’s also human like us,” Davis defended, gripping Ivana’s hand tighter. Lilico let out a short, dry laugh. Marveled at how Davis was pretending to care about Ivana’s feelings, when she already knew he was in for all the benefits.Suddenly, the car sto

Chapter: Chapter 2: His FlawsLilico’s nod sent shivers down Ivana’s spine, draining the color from her face. Ivana blinked once, twice, then tilted her head as if trying to grasp the whole thing. Suddenly, it clicked in head, her eyes widened in shock as she raised a finger and pointed at Lilico. “You’re Ice Face’s younger sister? The adopted child?” she exclaimed.Ivana couldn’t believe she was sitting across from the only daughter of the Brooklyns. A well-known U.S business tycoon. Lilico was their adopted daughter, showered with love even after patriarch Grey Brooklyn’s death. Her cold, ice-faced elder brother, Tardrain, had left abroad to run his own company, leaving Lilico and his mother in charge of the family business.Lilico scoffed, a cold smirk twisting her lips. “I hate that word ‘adopted’!” she hissed, slamming another cash onto the table. “Make him fall hard for you, then kill him. He took what’s mine. Now I’ll take everything from him.” Venom dripped from every word of her mouth.Ivana’s heart p

Chapter: Chapter 1: Just For LoveLilico slammed five stacks of cash onto the table in front of Ivana. Ivana’s eyes widened, locking onto the money, ignoring everything else, the giver, her surroundings. Everything blurred into insignificance.She immediately ran her fingers over the stack, assessing its thickness and texture. Her thumb rubbed obsessively along the edges, testing its bulk and reality.Without uttering a word, Ivana began counting it right there, licking her thumb compulsively, a satisfied smile spreading across her lips.“Marry him. Make him fall in love. Then kill him.” Lilico’s cold voice cut through the heavy silence like a knife.Ivana’s gaze snapped toward Lilico as if waking from a trance. Unconsciously, the money slipped from her hand, scattering onto the floor. Uncontrollable laughter burst from her throat, shoulders shaking violently, ribs aching. Her gaze darted wildly between Lilico and her boyfriend, Davis, who sat opposite her, desperately signaling her to accept.“Wait! What?” Ivana fin
